The Winnowing - DaMilano wins!!

[TheWatcher]

I object to anything that makes it more likely that Nah will lose http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

[ZeWanker]

I'm ok with waiting for OG for a couple of turns. An ETA would help though...

[Shmonk]

I believe a delay or increase of host time is in order, for at least the weekend (add 24 or 36 hours at the mininum to the current time remaining). That way if Gleep gets it fixed quickly, we can continue on. Or if he gets an ETA, we at least will know how long it will be before he's back online and make a decision then.

So I'm all for waiting.

[OG_Gleep]

Thanks guys, but I think I am good now. Got a firewall setup from my office which I believe has stopped it.

[Peacekeeper]

your not playing Watcher, your votes dont count =)

[OG_Gleep]

On the note of the VQ, I believe QM was right, and immortal units can't respawn if the capitol is in enemy hands. I assume it works like Ritual of Returning, if the caster is wounded they automatically port to their capitol, and die if it is in enemy hands.

TC is dead (well fought wish), and after killing his VQ, it never showed up in any of the subsequent battles in his remaining provinces.

[archaeolept]

if you call back a god, she/he will come back in the lands around a capital if it is taken. If you kill an immortal but have the capital fortress occupied, she/he will not come back.

If you kill an immortal in the province outside the capital castle, and then assault the castle that turn, you will end up fighting him/her twice http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

[OG_Gleep]

Ya thats why I rushed the capitol when I saw his VQ was a couple provinces out. Thankfully she didn't make it back in time and I took the province as she arrived.

All in all I had a lot of fun.

[ZeWanker]

The horror... the horror...



PS Hide your youngins...


Edit I am (as you can no doubt see) dead. If I make it to the next turn I'll go AI.

[Shmonk]

It looks like I have to be out of town, from Thursday morning to Monday afternoon (PST). Can we possibly put this game on hold starting Wed evening? That would be preferable over getting a sub (at least this late in the game, a lot of stuff is going on).

Let me know if this would be okay with everybody.

[Peacekeeper]

Lets go ahead and hold it.

[DaMilano]

Sure, no problem.

[Shmonk]

Thanks. I'll be back on Monday, ready to continue on.

[Ironhawk]

At Shmonk's request I've switched this game over to regular quickhost (no timer). Let me know when you want the timer turned back on.

How's this game going, anyway? You all have been playing for a long while now. I bet you are not so noob, anymore! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

[OG_Gleep]

Machaka ate his wheaties and is nuking the crap outta me, and beating the snot out of everyone who gets in his way.

[Shmonk]

Okay, it's time to get this game going again. I'm back and ready to tackle the Evil Opressor aka Machaka. Or at least make him trip a few times (and suffer some scrapes and bruises, at the minimum).

[DaMilano]

Hey, you both attacked me as I was going about mending my peaceful ways, remember http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
Can't blame a guy for defending himself http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

[OG_Gleep]

LoL...thats like the US Launching a pre-emtive nuke attack against Tahiti in defense of our nation.

[OG_Gleep]

I am heading out of town this weekend. If anyone is not playing in either of these two games I could really use a sub:

Schitzor
Random Nations (hosted by Graeme)

I'll be gone till Sunday, if you can, PM me and I'll send the info.

Thansk.

[Peacekeeper]

In case Winnowing/MD are up before Tuesday, im going to be out of town and would like to delay new turns until I get back. Thanks in advance!

[Peacekeeper]

Games up again you know....-prods schmonk, og and da-

[Shmonk]

Doh! I felt that prod... I'll do my turn tonight after work. Might as well get this game started again.

[OG_Gleep]

I'm pretty much going through the motions at this point. How about everyone else?

[Peacekeeper]

Im ready to concede to machaka when you guys are.

[Shmonk]

I would agree with that. I've just been trying new spells/strategies, because I'm definitely out of it.

So I guess we're conceding to Machaka, as the winner?

[Peacekeeper]

If nah agrees.

[OG_Gleep]

Nah's the last one, but ya the stinky spiders have won from my perspective

[Nah27]

Yeah, I'm willing to call this one over now.

[Peacekeeper]

Congrats da, you win.

[Morkilus]

Might want to let Ironhawk know.

[OG_Gleep]

Wait...if we are voting, I vote I win.

[DaMilano]

Yippie! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gifenmark:
Thanks for the game everyone!

[OG_Gleep]

I just pmed IH, incase anyone else was gonna do it.

[Shmonk]

Great game everyone. I didn't have any SCs or Thugs so I wasn't very competitive. But I was able to forge a lot of good stuff towards the end (Amon Hotep, for example), just no one to give it to to use it effectively. And then the "artillery" spells cut into my income and gem income. Definitely a fun game.

And thanks again for hosting Ironhawk!

[Ironhawk]

Congrats on your win DaMilano! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Was a pleasure to host for you guys. Glad you enjoyed it.
